I see reading comprehension isn't you forte!

Yes one rifle on a few weeks hunt in AK is like I said, a very very small sample size and period of time to come to the conclusion you have in my opinion.

Now if you want to talk about guns from everyone in general we can certainly talk about that. But it is still a uphill battle! Anyone that has spent any decent amount of time in the rain forest of SE AK knows they are going to get corrosion on blued rifles. Sure if you are only a day hunter maybe you can preserve a blued gun. But if you are spending weeks at a time in the field year after year there is no way you are going to keep a blued gun from corrosion. Now I never said sever pitting or exfoliation, I said corrosion!
